I need another fandom or another MMO like I need a *hole* in my head....

I've heard tell of the SciFi channel's TV series "The Dresden Files", mostly from folks in the MxO, and most notably from the faction member I refer to as "Dragon Guy", and I've been spotting -- at various bookstores -- the series of books that inspired it. So when I noticed one of them on the paperback rack at work, I decided, on a whim to buy a copy. Just started reading it, and I'm having a terrible time putting it down! Move over, John Constantine: Harry Dresden could give you a run for your money. Now I'm wishing we had cable so I could watch the TV series, but I suppose I could try poking around BitTorrent.

And in MxO-related news: our faction is considering branching out into a new MMO. No, we aren't moving on from the MxO yet (Though I'm afraid I misunderstood the situation and then blew it out of proportion): Things have been a bit slow in-game, and WGAnubis, our capo di tutto capi only wants to expand on our options. We're considering trying out EvE Online and seeing if that fits our group and it's structure (So instead of being a goth-themed Mafia family in a virtual world within a post-apocalyptic nightmarish reality, we'll also be a goth-themed Mafia family in an alternate level of the universe. Call it the "space Matrix"; who knows what sort of simulations the Machines tinkered with during the early days of the Matrix?). I'm about to try out EvE's free trial and give it a go. The challenge will be figuring out how to juggle paying for two MMOs, but I suppose I could always suspend one account and run the other, on alternating months.
